Helix

Helix (WiiWare)

Helix is an innovative music rhythm game. Using the Wii Remote motion sensing, you perform hand motions to the beat of the music. The game claims to give you a great upper body cardiovascular workout.

You can use two Wii Remotes to do over 30 moves, including punches, circles, backfists, hooks, and more. Eye-popping background visuals pulse to the beat of the music.

? Fighting/Music game? Thatd be awesome. NEEDS STORY MODE
AND DLC- New songs!! (But include enough from the start too)

Looks crappy
sorry :-)

On another note, the synopsis of the game is very promotional. I'm guessing this is a text done by the manufacturer. Maybe it should be made clear that this isn't a review ...

Give it a chance BDP, it might be genius! Don't worry, we have toned down the synopsis now! :p

Hehe,
It's just envy really because the stick figure probably has better moves than me :p
Thanks for adjusting the text, a detail really but still ... objective reviews is why most people check the vc-r and wiiwareworld sites and we are gratefull you're there guys !!! ( i sure know my wallet is :-) )

^ Heh.

Seems kinda interesting. But I doubt I'll be getting it. Maybe my sib will be interested.

Nooo 1000 points for a game that looks like it uses a WinAMP visual plugin and some half-recognisable dance music?
Is DLC coming too? 500 points for 3 crappy dance tracks at a time?

Man I'm gonna need a shovel to clean out my fridge!

"The game claims to give you a great upper body cardiovascular workout." - I see... Well that certainly may appeal to some who are into Wii Fit and DDR Hottest Party but...

I dunno... *wonders about the song list, finds this:
http://www.ghostfiregames.com/tracks.html

Ah, so there are 26 songs, hm? If that's the case, don't price it 1000, guys. 800 is the magic number.

Anyway, this really reminds me of DDR Hottest Party with just the hand motions, basically. Maybe they got inspiration from there?

I don't know any songs on this screen... But anyway, I may give this a chance for my sib, that is. Who knows, maybe I'll like it. I hope they get the pricing right and determine it based on the # of songs they have.

Also, this is coming VERY soon. It's been rated by the ESRB so that says something on its own.

This should be fun. I'm tired of hearing the same old music so some independant stuff sounds brilliant

I don't see why everyone is so against this game, it looks good. I seriously don't see what's so UN appealing about this game for you guys.

Looks interesting, but does it actually help you athletic wise?
It might take-off if they have the right mix of songs, an hand gestures.
The tracks seems too "Techno" for me.....
Might have to pass this up, but hopefully more gameplay footage and info can shed light on this new age game.
Wii Fit is doing great on the market.
Rockn.

According to the European Nintendo Channel, this was supposed to be released today (Wednesday 30 July), but it's past midnight and still nothing. Keep checking throughout the night, and I'll be checking in the morning.

If we do get this tomorrow or Friday, that's three WiiWare games in one week...maybe we're getting somewhere.
